05-06-2015Pattern: Cheaper by the Dozen - with a scrappy border from the leftovers plus a strip or two from my stash. This is my "go to" pattern for easy, fast projects.
Fabric: Assorted collected FQ's. Most from the Houston Quilt Show, but a few are from Jo-ann's, and a couple from the LQS. I've already washed it with a color catcher and ... nothing. I was so surprised at how well it came out. I sometimes iron them after they are washed to make them look fresher, but this one is going just as it came out. Hurray!
Quilting: Stars. Very lop-sided, folk art style stars. I figure I'll look back at this age/stage and call it my "Primitive Period".
Backing: a navy blue sheet from Wal-mart
Binding: Brought over from back
Size: 60 X 70 (Approx.)
This is for a grad from my church.
